Re: Eunice, Maud, and Opal
in reply to a message by Effie
Eunice isn't very pretty, it's got that nasally sound - but it's not awful and would be usable, in a hipster way. So ugly it's cute, nothing really dragging it down. It used to be stereotypically little-old-housewife-y, but I don't think it is any more.
Maud would also seem "ugly-retro-chic" and is usable. I think it's a little cute, even. I expect most people would hate it - that's what makes it seem so hipsterish. But it gets an air of spunkiness from sounding like "Mod," and also from Harold and Maude.
Opal is truly ugly IMO and gives me a very blowsy impression. But I guess it could probably be used in the hipster way too, since I think not everyone would say it was ugly, and it fits with the word name trend.
Any of them would be cool to see on my son's 4-year-old peers, but I really don't like Opal.
